they mean the wheel goes back in the same place each time you put it back in again so you’re not having to re-centre the disc calliper repeatedly.

repeatedly?
i've never had to re-centre my callipers after taking a wheel out on a qr bike.

maybe i've just been lucky though?

Tbf as a BB7 fan, and a QR user I've never had to adjust them for wheel in / wheel out (which I do a fair bit as doesn't fit in car with wheels on). You just have to set them up properly in the first place.

Long live the BB7 (and QR. You can't mess up the threads of a QR skewer like you can a fork that I've seen many a time from poor installation).
